Green Shell

Gernhard, Per

  • "Green Shell" by Per Gernhardt, original art design, good condition, only minimal shelfwear.
  • A perfectly formed shell in a delicate green light is captured in this colour lithograph from 1977.
  • As the colour of hope, the green light refers to the glimmer of hope inherent in every loss. Green is also the colour of nature, in which the cycle of life and decay naturally determines the natural course of things.
  • In this sense, the shells and dwellings of the mussel stand for fertility and regeneration of life. With the passing away, a process of regeneration can begin, from which something new can emerge.

Per Gernhardt was born in Posen in 1941.

1967 Studies at the Hochschule für bildende Künste, Berlin, with Prof. Dörries.

The artist has lived in Wendland since 1980.

Gernhardt has developed a personal subtle style of realism, which always keeps the possibilities of viewing the observed environment open. He is characterised as a painter of light and air, who lays a filter of colour over the chosen details and thus creates a poetic atmosphere.
